- Proven performance in commercial environments

Choosing the Right Stump Teapot for Your Business
Available in multiple sizes and a wide range of colours, the Forlife Stump Teapot has become one of the most versatile teapot ranges available to the hospitality sector.
Whether you’re serving speciality loose-leaf tea in a boutique tea room or providing all-day tea service in a busy café, selecting the right capacity can help improve consistency, reduce waste and enhance the customer experience.
13oz Stump Teapots
The 13oz Stump Teapot is commonly chosen for individual tea service.
Its compact design makes it ideal for venues serving premium loose-leaf teas where freshness and presentation are a priority. The smaller capacity also allows customers to enjoy tea brewed specifically for their table rather than from a larger shared pot.
Popular applications include:
- Tea rooms
- Afternoon tea service
- Speciality tea shops
- Independent cafés
- Premium hospitality venues
18oz Stump Teapots
The 18oz Stump Teapot is one of the most popular options within the range thanks to its flexibility and practicality.
Typically serving two cups of tea, it is well suited to customers sharing a pot or venues looking to deliver exceptional value during table service.
The larger capacity makes it particularly popular with:
- Cafés
- Garden centre restaurants
- Hotels
- Restaurants
- High-volume hospitality operators
Loose Leaf Tea or Teabags
Every original Forlife Stump Teapot is fitted with a fine-mesh stainless steel infuser basket designed for loose-leaf tea.
The basket allows tea leaves space to expand during brewing while helping prevent sediment from entering the cup. For businesses offering both loose-leaf tea and traditional teabags, the removable infuser provides additional flexibility without requiring different teapot styles.
Built for Professional Tea Service
The Stump Teapot remains a favourite among hospitality operators because it combines practicality with presentation.
Its stackable design helps maximise storage space, while its durable stoneware construction and dishwasher-safe finish make it suitable for daily commercial use.
For businesses looking for a reliable, professional-grade teapot that delivers consistent performance across every service, the original Forlife Stump Teapot continues to set the industry standard.
